    I found it!!!!!!!
    Although I turned off ALL Microsoft Updates and I was only manually updating one at a time restarting each time, as I was troubleshooting an IE8 lagg issue posted here in the forums. Well, it turns out Microsoft installed 3 updates with out me allowing it. They installed:

    2 x Windows Update-critical update and
    1 x Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributal.

    I did a system restore point to before these installs and everything is working like a charm again! ....Go figure......Now I will pinpoint which one it exactly was.....

    Thanks for everyone's help!!!!

    Glad that you got it working ...
    Thank You for posting back the solution

    It's using CompMgmtLauncher.exe to display its window if that helps anyone track it down.

    Well I think i've fixed it with shexview.exe, this particular item just has a ? for its name I disabled it and Manage and Windows Media Player 12 both work the same as normal now. It's still worrying though as I have no idea why it got that way in the first place.

    Glad that your issue is fixed

    Extension " ? " doesn't actually give much information. .NET framework it kind of generic because Context Menu is adding to ASP.NET Controls. So i guess you don't have to worry about it because if it important i don't think the Extension name would be " ? "

    The worry may be over already, I think I've figured out what program pissed about with my computer. If you look at the picture above you will see the date the CLSID was changed, I looked through the install dates of my programs and found one program installed that day that could be a probable cause, in this case it was some junk called 'balesio FILEminimizer' that came free with Nero 9 that I purchased on the same day. Anyway I removed it and after refreshing shexview.exe the ? had disappeared, hopefully that's sorted it out.

    Thanks for the help Jack

    Its funny you mention FILEminimizer, I also found this software installed with my nero. Come to find out, it is also given out free on a site called "Giveawayoftheday.com"....I wonder if that was the cause of my mange computer issue? I will look into it more, but for now, I'm good..Thanks!

    Just wanted to confirm , I had the very same problem and AndyDigital was right it was Fileminimizer , I had it installed on my system when the problem occured , I uninstalled it and everything is back to normal again .

    I REALLY can't stand when software installs cr@p on your system without asking !

    Thanks to all for your replies, I had the same issue and was able to solve it: I also received the FileMinimizer Suite because I purchased an upgrade to Nero 9 and initially thought it could be useful... However, I could not find the extension using ShellExView. But after having a closer look to the folder that contains FileMinimizer, I noticed the following two files:
    - FILEMShell.exe
    - ShellMenu.ext
    and decided to rename their extension to .NOTEXE.

    After re-starting the system, the problem was solved and FileMinimizer still seems to work. I'll probably de-install it anyway however, because I don't like that kind of "marketing" at all...
